HOW TO ADJUST POULAN MODEL 2150 CHAINSAW CARBURETOR. These are just suggestions, others might do it differently. Be Careful doing this. IF YOU SCREW IN THE LOW SCREW IT WILL RUN LEANER. UNSCREW THE LOW SCREW AND IT WILL RUN RICHER.
USE THE HIGH SCREW TO SET IDLE AND ALSO TOP END. DON'T FORGET THE IDLE ADJUST SCREW, THE BIG SCREW, TURN IT IN FOR FASTER IDLING AND TURN OUT FOR LOWER IDLE.

  • can anyone tell me how many turns out i need to completely reset my IDLE screw to factory

  • @mexicanstandup not sure, but i set it so the chain doesn't turn, also H screw start at 1 1/2 and low at 1 turn out

  • Excellent video bro. it really helped out.

  • @theblame01 thanks for watching

  • Dony - thanks for the great video! Challenge I'm having is saw starts great - runs ggod, but starts to rev up high after a few minutes - and continues to rev full speed after i let off the throttle and even hit the kill switch - only way to stop it is hit the choke - any ideas?

  • @MrHortonct check the throttle linkage, could also be a carb issue

  • My chainsaw leaks oil. I open the plastic cas and oil has dripped in the case or on the floor, when left over nite. The chainsaw runs great with no signs of oil leaking.

  • @donyboy73 I like the way you have your chainsaws displayed.

  • @raceman888 sorry idle mixture is also the low screw

  • @raceman888 adjust the idle SPEED screw in until it will stay running, then adjust the Idle MIXTURE screw until you get the highest RPM, then back off the SPEED screw, till it will idle without the chain moving. adjust the HIGH at full throttle, until you get the highest RPM, then back it out just a touch. he didn't even mention that did he?

  • Bought a Polan opened a year later and it will not run/ idle. Takes forever to get it to where i can use it. I will try this . thanks.

  • I Was Wondering If U Can Do This On A Husqarvarna 356 demonstraion, carb adjustment

  • thanks, i had a talon ac3100, with a walbro t439 carb, watched your video, set low and hi to 1 1/2 turns, and away it went, thanks
